Filing A Prevailing Wage Complaint

A person who has information of an alleged prevailing wage violation on a state project may file a complaint with the Wage & Hour Division.  The department will investigate and attempt to resolve the complaint informally.  During the course of an investigation, if the requested records and posting certification are not made available in compliance with Section 5 of Act 166, the investigation will be concluded and a referral to the Office of Prosecuting Attorney for criminal action under Section 7 and/or the Office of Attorney General for civil action will be made.  The Office of Attorney General will pursue costs and fees associated with a lawsuit if filing is necessary to obtain records.
